thing number one is a hand-stamped sterling teardrop pendant on a delicate sixteen-inch necklace with lucite floral accents. perfect for you, or the person whose birthday will sneak up on you next tuesday.

thing number two is mopsy, a bitty rabbit with a hand-cut note of affirmation. she's crafted from wool felt and the very last scraps of my amy butler ginger bliss fabric. i think i may enter to win this one myself.

in case you are afraid you'll miss out on mopsy, her brother flopsy is up for sale in my etsy shop.

to win thing one or thing two, please just say hi in the comment section below, and if you happen to have a good knock-knock joke, tack that on. (if not, no worries. just say hello.) i'm trying to teach my four-year-old actual jokes (as opposed to her made-up jokes, which inevitably feature the words potty, poop, and/or booty. it's just a stage, right?).

tell me in your comment which prize you'd prefer, and i'll pick two winners at random next weekend.

Hi there! Saw your post on TWITTER since we crashed the server! Such a cute blog and I love your talent. I'd love that bunny, it's just adorable! I've never won a blog giveaway (always crossing my fingers). LOL Thanks!

Just going from party to party to see how others are doing this blogging thing.I started watching fringe because of mr joshua jackson...he is yummylove the necklace also it is delicate looking.I don't have a joke for you but I remember my neice singing'three little monkeys farting in a tree' and she was into that for MONTHS...good memoriesHave a good weekend

Hey nic! Cute cute bunny! Don't worry about her jokes. She is ahead of my kiddo. when I try to teach her about jokes I start with "knock knock" and then I tell her "okay now you say who's there" and she looks at me strangely and simply replies "grandma!" as always, love your blog!

ROFL!!!!!!! I know EXACTLY how you feel re: the Knock Knock jokes... my 6-year-old is in a talent show this coming week, and she's telling--you guessed it--knock knock jokes. It took us quite some time to get her to understand that the ones we found via google were WAY better than the ones she made up... LOL! Okay, here's a good one...

I love the necklace, mostly because I'm an adoptive momma who hears all the time how *lucky* my daughter is, when - in truth - I'M the one who is lucky.

As for knock knock jokes...

Knock Knock!Who's there?Norma Lee.Norma Lee who?Normalee I don't go around knocking on doors, but it's the UBP this week! (or, if you tell the joke next month, ...but do you want to buy a set of encyclopedias?)

Hi, I loved the photos of your kids. I also love Mopsy, sooooo cute. I popped by from the UBP :) Enjoying this party and visiting everyone - sorry I've gone blank - can never remember jokes when I need to! Hugs, Catherine and my Bumpkin Bears

Unfortunately all the knock knock jokes I know are already in your comments. My 3 year old tells the orange/banana one ALL THE TIME- but he leaves out the banana part and then it doesn't make sense. He still finds it "so silly."

Christina - xristya@rock.com - Hi! This is my first Ultimate Blog Party, and I'm enjoying it! I prefer the silver necklace - is it imprinted with the word Lucky, or do you get to choose a word? (In which case I would choose KALINA, a name.) Either way, it's just GREAT and thanks for the giveaway!

I am out and about partying at the Blog Party. I am having fun, and finding some awesome blogs.Your kids are gorgeous, I love the necklace and could the bunny be any cuter. I have no Knock Knock joke, sorry.I am Aunt Rene from auntrene.blogspot.comif you have a chance stop by and leave a comment for my Surprise Door Prize giveaway.Thanks for inviting us to stop by your blog, its been fun.

prize number one I am a jewlery freak and its so beautiful, the beginning of your blog post is so funny and so right on how cutewish I had a knock knock joke, but I never can remember them, jokes that isHappy UBP 2009

hey, Brian always has Kaya tell this one, you may have heard it cause he likes to show her off. Ask someone to tell them your name. Then ask that person if they would like to hear Lauren say their name in Chinese (or Hawaiian). When they say yes, the kid pops off with "your name in chinese". Everyone loves it. I love the necklace, see ya Sunday, Carrie

Oooh! So fun! Thanks for leaving that sweet comment on my blog so I could come find you and see your awesome giveaway! I love that necklace and would be tickled pink (or blue and orange) to wear it around my neck. Thanks for the chance! =)

love the prizes, nice work. I don't have a knock knock, but I can let you know my four year olds favorite joke...what do you call a flying skunk?a smell-a-copter...hahahaahahahamy fingers will be crossed for thing one or thing two.

THANK YOU for the laugh! Oh the jokes I've heard that contained potty talk! The dinner's that have erupted in children's laughter over a potty joke whispered in the ear... "Guess who?" "who?" "Poophead!" har har har.

I used this site to enrich my children with non-potty jokes- Kids Jokes

Silly Songs are a big favorite now - "Found a Peanut" I can't find the lyrics my mom taught me online, but theres a wide variety on google.

I love both! Does it put me in better running to say it's my dd's birthday Wed. the 6! I don't have a knock knock joke but here is one I always tell the little ones:How does an Elephant hide in a cherry tree? He wears red shoes.

Hi Nicole! Your blog is lovely as usual! I just purchased Flopsy in your shop, so I am dying to win Mopsy since I have two daughters. I'm hoping that I will have two so there's no extreme jealousy! I guess I'm going on faith since I never win these things. I also purchased that gorgeous and cheery yellow halter. So beautiful! Okay, so a good knock knock joke.

Knock, knock.Who's there?Olive.Olive who?Olive you!

And another for Easter...

Knock, kncok.Who's there?Olga.Olga who?Olga around and look for the prettiest egg.

Hi!I just popped in through the party link list.Is it too soon to say I love you?Um, sorry, maybe that's creepy after just one meeting. heeheeI am loving your blog though... and can't wait to get back to read more.

Hi,I'm visiting from the UBP. I'm having a blast meeting new people and reading everyone's blogs. It was very nice to have met you. Come on over and check out what's going on at my blog. We're having a blast!

La Stink did quite a bit of less than stellar-knock knocking as a wee lass. There is hope though my friend; stay tuned to your miss, in a couple of years (I know gasp...years) she may just break out one like this little gem, come just this day, from our gal:

Knock Knock.Who's there?Repeat.Repeat Who?alright... Who, Who, Who.

snort. That girl slays me. She slays me and she loves your blog ;)

I don't think I have ever seen anything quite so cleverly made as your long ear-ed one... I hate to think that I would covet it selfishly for myself if I won, but I might ;)sarah

Wow I would have a better chance at winning the lottery! But it's worth a try. I love everything you make! Here's a joke for your little one.Knock knockWho's there?DishesDishes Who?Dishes me. Who ish you?

Oh my goodness. First thing... LOVE the new look and look at that gorgeous picture of you over in the side bar - holy moly you look awesome!!! Secondly - are you stamping now!! AWESOMENESS!!! (We need to talk about that.)Thirdly, I've got "too excited about the early stuff to finish reading the whole post before I comment" syndrome and hope I'm doing this right to enter. Now I have to go check out this 5 minutes for Mom business.

Wow! You are such a good photographer! I love photography and am getting into it myself. I have a Nikon D60. What do you shoot with? You have a great eye, everything is so simple in your shots. Well, have a great time with the blog party!

Oh both the necklace and the bunny are adorable! I wish I could think of a good knock-knock joke off-hand, but I'm drawing a blank at the moment :-p I'll definitely have to check out your blog more later... (I'm just bookmarking everyone right now, while I blog-hop my way through the party :-p)

Feel free to check out my blog, too! While I found the party too late to be part of the official prize giveaways, I do have a door prize at my blog: I'm giving away a free print copy of my book, "Two Snowflakes." Here's my address: http://twinhappyjen.blogspot.com/

Blog Party Woohoo! Talk about fashionably late, right, sorry. I have been sick which left me in a fog all last week, so I am still trying tomake my rounds. Better late than never I figured. Anyway, hope you had a great week at the UBP. Hope to see you again sometime!
